Field Recording: Wind And Water, Passage Through A Channel

August 22 2015, 10:19 AM. Okavango Delta.

The rhythm of traveling by mekoro with the interplay between water, air, ngashi (pole), and reeds, can be very meditative and beautiful (when there is enough water and clear passage). I don't want to forget this pulse.
